The current Land of Eternal Night may be much more dangerous than before, and no one is sure whether any vampire pioneers have successfully sneaked in.
But fortunately, the ancestors of the blood clan have been monitored by the demon world for many years. If the ancestors of the eighth-level marquis and above go north, there will definitely be some movement from the demon clan.
One of the "North-South Treaties" between the vampires and the demons is that the vampires cannot easily cross the land of eternal night without permission, unless it is similar to the vampire envoy Baron Sanchez in the Purgatory Corridor Academy in the Shadow World, who has passed through the demons. By negotiating with the vampires in advance, they can be welcomed into the Demon Realm openly, and work with the Demon Realm investigators to search for humans lurking in the Corridor Academy of Purgatory.
"Boss Cat, we should leave Helsalem tomorrow morning and go to the Demon Realm."
Lan Qi tapped his fingers lightly on the table, looking at the [Transformation: Human] he had just made.
This is a spell card that can transform into him, Ranch Wilford, and he made it with his own hands in the past two days.
Because he brought Boss Cat with him this time, he had plenty of card slots, and even had him carry a portable card-making tool set consisting of ten equipment cards, so he could make magic cards even in the shadow world.
It's just that this kind of compressed portable tool is far inferior to the high-end tools in the modern workshop, and the difficulty of making cards in the shadow world is much higher than that in the real world.
Ranchi will make a close subordinate of his faction transform into him, play as him in the next three to four weeks, and maintain activities in Helsalem according to his plan.
During this time, he will transform into Rocky McCarthy and travel through the Land of Eternal Night to the Demon Realm, looking for Hyperion and seeking some negotiation possibilities with the big demons.
During this period, he would turn off the live broadcast of the Shadow World. In addition to not wanting people in the Southern Continent to see Rocky McCarthy, he also didn't want people in the real world to see him transformed into a demon.
As long as he transforms into a demon and loses the cover of human skin, other demons in the demon world may discover that he is a big demon. This is difficult to explain to the people of the Southern Continent.
"Meow, I don't know what Hyperion's demonic veins are in the demon world now. I'm worried that she won't adapt to the environment."
Boss Cat misses Hyperion very much.
Previously, when Hyperion fell into the Kingdom of Esther Terran, it was not worried about Hyperion at all, because it was a pure land, but it was afraid of the demon world just thinking about it.
"Don't worry, it will be fine just waiting for me to bring her back."
Lan Qi reached out and touched the little black cat and said firmly.
"Ah."
The little black cat nodded.
Lan Qi has been surprisingly normal these days, although he can't understand what Lan Qi does every day.
In addition to discussing and writing plans, he was doing the normal work of a prime minister. After getting home from get off work, he was engaged in small-scale magic engineering research and development, and he did not give a powerful speech as expected.
It was very happy, and Lanqi finally listened to what it and Hyperion said.
Although this shadow world looks very desperate, after traveling through the Northern Continent, it believes in Lan Qi's ability and upper limit, and this shadow world is Lan Qi's strength. As long as he works seriously, after more than forty days, he will It may not be difficult to increase the odds of winning from 0% to the 1% required by the goal.
All it has to do is take care of Lanqi's daily balanced diet and health.
It saw that the current situation of the Polante Empire had become——
[Popularity: 145→ 276/1000 (popular support rate and cohesion)]
[House of Representatives: 252→227/1000 (support rate of top management within the Pollant Empire)]
[Military strength: 124/1000 (using the Horning Empire as a reference)]
[Finance: 222→236/1000 (the current productivity status of the Polante Empire)]
[Diplomacy: 115/1000 (diplomatic relations with the demon world and surrounding countries that have not yet surrendered)]
The odds of winning are still 0.0000%, and even to the fourth decimal place, there is no positive number.
However, it is understandable, because the results achieved by Ranchi this week are actually very small. In addition to basically stabilizing the public sentiment and the House of Representatives, the decisive factor is only a slight increase in the fiscal one, which is still due to the related impact of the increase in public sentiment.
Boss Cat felt that due to Lan Qi's overly stable and normal decision-making this time, in the eyes of people outside the shadow world, Lan Qi might have almost spent a week in vain to get familiar with the shadow world.
In other words, for a total of forty-five rounds, he has wasted the first six. It is hard to imagine how much pressure Lanci's teacher Loren is facing outside now.
For the next trip to the Demon World, the live broadcast of the Shadow World will be cut off for three to four weeks. When the live broadcast of the Shadow World starts again, I don’t know if Loren can withstand it.
In this all-or-nothing diplomatic journey, you can only win but not lose, otherwise Ranch and Loren may have to defend their families in the face of public opinion.
"Speaking of Lan Qi, what's the use of this thing you prepared?"
The cat boss standing on the table patted some handwritten notes and complex planning projects scattered in front of Lan Qi's eyes with his paw.
Lan Qi arranged a lot of work before setting off, but he could understand a little bit about the one in front of him. It did not involve too many political issues of the Paulante Empire, and was just a simple engineering strategic plan.
Its cover is titled - "Shalem Project"
It will be hosted by the Army and use a lot of resources and manpower. The startup plan is to be researched and tested by magic engineers at a confidential research institute located on the outskirts of the capital Hershalem, and at the same time, construction and expansion will be completed. Multiple laboratories and factories have been set up across the country to assist.
"It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not. What I need is to do my best during this period to let the spies in the south know that we have a 'Shalem Plan' and are investing all our efforts in creating a secret weapon. Anyway, it is to let the Horning Empire Doubt us."
Lanci replied.
He has no secrets from Maomao.
"Can you build something?"
Boss Cat became even more confused.
In fact, it feels that it will be good to complete the start-up phase in just over forty days, and it is impossible to produce any results.
"It can't be made."
Lan Qi shook his head calmly,
"But as long as the Horning Empire can't figure out whether we have a 'Shalem Plan' or not, that's enough."
"But there really isn't."
Boss Cat was confused.
"Who knows?"
Lan Qi spread his hands.
Just because it can't be created doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
When the time comes, a [Fusion Wolf] will be airdropped to the Horning Empire, and the Horning Empire may believe it.
They even believe that this kind of bomb can be continuously manufactured, and that the Pollant Empire can air-drop a second one.
Anyway, let's fabricate a void "Sharem Plan" first to create a chain of suspicion in the Horning Empire, which will naturally give the vampires a small light and heat shock.
Throwing a fusion wolf in this day and age probably wouldn't lead to a military court, so he could just press the button without any worries.
The key now is to find fuel in the demon world.
And tomorrow morning, the secretary will help him find a snowfield driver who can take him and Boss Cat safely through the land of eternal night, and the journey will begin.
Chapter 543 Diplomat Lanci’s new journey
Early morning on the seventh day.
The office is decorated with dark wood furniture and several small inlaid bookshelves hang on the wallpaper-covered walls.
This is not the Prime Minister's Office in the Parliament Building, but a study in a private residence that is not under Lanci's name, and is closer to the outskirts of Helsalem.
"Lan Qi, how long do we have to wait?"
Boss Cat was crawling around on Lan Qi's clothes.
They disguised themselves this morning and arrived at this hidden starting point.
Waiting for the secretary to bring Lan Qi the person who will escort them to the snowfield.
It was very nervous about setting off to the demonic world of this era.
Having never seen what the demon world is like, it is hard to imagine that Lan Qi would go deep into the Demon King's City alone.
Just the thought of meeting a living demon made the cat owner tremble and wanted to go back to his restaurant immediately.
However, once the Shadow World sets off, it cannot regret it halfway. No matter what, it will have to spend more than thirty days in this Shadow World before it can return to Cat Boss Restaurant to see its lovely employees again.
"Look at the best, what if you can learn some Demon Realm dishes? Your cuisine can become richer again."
Lan Qi poked Boss Cat's forehead. In his other hand, a cup of freshly brewed tea was still steaming.
Today, he has cut off the real-life reality of the film world record program and transformed into Rocky McCarthy's brown hair and green eyes. His clothes are no longer the usual black suit of the Prime Minister, but have the pattern maker make it for him. Customized Protos-style suit——
The collar and cuffs of a white long-sleeved shirt are decorated with black trim. A beige sleeveless vest is divided into a diamond-shaped checkerboard pattern separated by dark brown stripes. There is also a dark gray long coat hanging on the coat rack, with a large lapel and two diagonal stripes. The slip pocket has an elegant and mysterious temperament.
"That's right, Meow, but I don't know if Tata and the others are used to it."
Boss Cat pondered.
"I think Tata would really like it."
Lanci said.
"Then I'll study a little harder, and I won't be able to accomplish anything in this shadow world, meow."
Boss Cat gained some confidence.
Although mastering a few more Demon Realm-flavored dishes can add a bit of uniqueness to the restaurant, they are not an authentic Demon Realm-themed restaurant by any means. They will not regard this as a selling point, let alone arouse the suspicion of the supervision department.
There are indeed Demon Realm-style restaurants in the Southern Continent, which have inherited the recipes passed down from the Demon Realm. There are also very popular success stories. The only risk is that they may be screened. It was discovered that all the employees of a Demon Realm-style restaurant were actually A real demon. Finally, the restaurant owner suspected of forging passports and illegal employment was sentenced.
One person and one cat were chatting like this.
Until Boss Cat felt some movement outside the door, he jumped into Lan Qi's shadow, leaving him alone.
It was not yet completely dark, and the indoor light was soft and warm. Lan Qi quietly looked out the window.
The streetscape of Helsalem is gradually illuminated by the thin morning light, and the hustle and bustle of the city is beginning to wake up, but it still looks bleak.
dong dong.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Lan Qi looked up and responded.
The door was also pushed open.
The secretary, well dressed, walked in with some documents and schedule in hand.
"Sir, the itinerary has been arranged for you, and we still need your final confirmation."
He reported important matters to Lanci in a respectful and professional manner.
Lan Qi nodded to express understanding, picked up the teacup and put it to his lips, ready to welcome the guests who were about to arrive.
